政之所兴，在顺民心。 - 每日文摘

我的生活确实古怪，他想，走过了奇怪的弯路。少年时，我只知道敬神和祭祀。青年时，我只知道苦行、思考和潜行，探索婆罗门，崇拜阿特曼之中的永恒。作为青年人，我效仿那些忏悔者，生活在森林里，忍受酷暑与严寒，学会挨饿，教自己的身体麻木。接着，那位活佛的教诲又奇妙地启迪了我，我感到关于世界统一性的认识又在我体内犹如自身的血液一样循环不已。可是，后来我又不得不离开了活佛以及他那伟大的真知。

赫尔曼·黑塞

高尚有高尚的代价，低下有低下的收益，清高有清高的寂寞，浑水摸鱼有浑水摸鱼的红火，智慧有智慧的痛苦，愚傻有愚傻的福气。

王蒙

可持续性不仅仅是一个流行词，它是我们海洋的生命线，也是我们行业的未来。

Sustainability isn't just a buzzword—it's the lifeline of our oceans and the future of our industry.

莎拉·霍华德

I have a vivid memory of what happened， and it was not what I expected. I expected to be applauded for my cleverness and arithmetic skills. "Jeff， you're so smart. You had to have made some tricky estimates， figure out the number of minutes in a year and do some division." That's not what happened. Instead， my grandmother burst into tears. I sat in the backseat and did not know what to do. While my grandmother sat crying， my grandfather， who had been driving in silence， pulled over onto the shoulder of the highway. He got out of the car and came around and opened my door and waited for me to follow. Was I in trouble？ My grandfather was a highly intelligent， quiet man. He had never said a harsh word to me， and maybe this was to be the first time？ Or maybe he would ask that I get back in the car and apologize to my grandmother. I had no experience in this realm with my grandparents and no way to gauge what the consequences might be. We stopped beside the trailer. My grandfather looked at me， and after a bit of silence， he gently and calmly said， "Jeff， one day you'll understand that it's harder to be kind than clever."

我清晰地记得接下来发生了什么，而那是我意料之外的。我本期待着小聪明和算术技巧能赢得掌声，但那并没有发生。相反，我的祖母哭泣起来。我的祖父之前一直在默默开车，把车停在了路边，走下车来，打开了我的车门，等着我跟他下车。我惹麻烦了吗？我的祖父是一个智慧而安静的人。他从来没有对我说过严厉的话，难道这会是第一次？还是他会让我回到车上跟祖母道歉？我以前从未遇到过这种状况，因而也无从知晓会有什么后果发生。我们在房车旁停下来。祖父注视着我，沉默片刻，然后轻轻地、平静地说："杰夫，有一天你会明白，善良比聪明更难。"
